The OpenAFS Release Team is pleased to announce that the prerelease 1.8.6pre3 is now available.
Source files and available binaries can be accessed via the web at: http://dl.openafs.org/dl/candidate/1.8.6pre3/ or via AFS at: UNIX: /afs/grand.central.org/software/openafs/candidate/1.8.6pre3/ UNC: \\afs\grand.central.org\software\openafs\candidate\1.8.6pre3\ This prerelase brings performance improvements, improved diagnostics, support for the latest Linux mainline kernel (currently 5.7) and macOS 10.15 "Catalina", and a number of bug fixes. Note that aklog and klog.krb5 will now require the -insecure_des switch in order to work with the weak and deprecated single-DES encryption types. To build this release with GCC 10, the parameter "-fcommon" has to be passed to the compiler, which can be achieved by setting the environment variable CFLAGS to -fcommon when running configure: "CFLAGS=-fcommon ./configure" For the full list of user visible changes foreseen for 1.8.6, please see http://dl.openafs.org/dl/candidate/1.8.6pre3/RELNOTES-1.8.6pre3 Please assist us by deploying this prerelease and providing positive or negative feedback.
